Romancing Saga 3 remake honestly deserves more hype.RS2 remake was my favorite jrpg in years
>>747480731qrd on the series?
either the spear is huge, or she is very tiny.
fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck I've run out of steam dollars and actually have to pay for games again
Looks nice.
Never played the original, is the remake equal or better than it?
>>747480731Love how the main cast makes the party look completely normal. Then you play the game and you get to recruit a snowman, a lobsterman, and an elephantman. The rest of the recruitables are no less weird either.
>>747482427Its sort of a Japanese take on the CRPG genre. You make various choices throughout that alter your playthroughs. And it does the "use a skill to unlock stronger versions of it / similar moves of this type" leveling (kinda like Skyrim) instead of the traditional jrpg "level up to unlock more skills"
>>747483385it's coming out in february2 was fun though
>>747483524>Romancing SaGa>RomancingDo they actually have kino romance?
>>747483531Yeah I meant 2 but forgot to type it.
>>747483385If it's like 2, I think it's much more accessible and streamlined compared to the original. I've heard from fans who see the remakes as a downgrade, but for a first time player it's seen as the best entry point.
>>747480731>puke inducing anime artshame
>>747483630>The word "romance" means a dramatized or idealized story based on history, rather than a love story
>>747483630it's used in the romance literature sense like king arthur
>>747483732>>747483741booooring
>>747483630There's one
>>747480731I saw that you can choose 1 of the X character at the start, how does that work?-Do you get 1 story per character? then come back to the menu to do another "route"-Do you start with 1 then recruit the others later like Octopath Traveler?-Do you choose your main but upon dying you get to continue with another character?
>>747483935It's mostly just different intros for the various characters. You can recruit most of the others ingame, I believe it is gameover if your main character runs out of LP but it's been a long while
>>747483935it's closer to agarest where you go through several generations(except you don't marr yand have kids) each generation you pick and inherient skilsl and jobs. You have characters you can choose to follow you every generation, some quests can make impossible to get certain characters but they weren't that common on the 2
>>747483524>Its sort of a Japanese take on the CRPG genreyou fucking wish your cuckold rpgs had half the mechanics of a SaGa gamemost don't even have a day and night cycle
>>747483935Play the beginning of romancing saga 3 remaster to get a feel
not sure I will like multi-protagonist slopI definitely have no intention of playing Octonibbas traveller
imagine
>>747483935Your main character decides what story beats you go through. The overall structure remains the same but the events play out differently depending on what your character is.
>>747484271Saga doesn't even have branching stories
>>747484870Even Romancing Saga 2 on the SNES had branching paths
>>747483935>(except you don't marry and have kids)dropped
>>747484939It literally doesn't. Your choices (the very few you have) don't impact anything.
>>747484980i lied because it's the same bloodline the whole game
>>747485192>directly influence gameplay opportunities>even change the world>changes to the ending>multiple different routes to questsoh I guess since it doesn't have gay sex its not real impact for you cuckold rpg faggots
>>747484380But isn't this the remaster releasing next year????
>>747485319Bodied that freak so hard it started your own CRPG gay romance with him
>>747485351No, this is a remake. There was a remaster like 6 years ago.
>>747486009Why a remake so soon???
>>747486173They're getting Xeen to remake these games probably to introduce them to people who aren't interested in old, 2D JRPGs, which is also why they made them simpler and easier to understand. The remaster was more like a port of a mobile release, I believe.
>>747480731i hate tertiaries so much, it's unreal
>>747480731don't worry I'm hyped. but it only comes out in 5 months..
>>747483385it's another xeen demake for tertiary faggots who don't like or play rpgs
>>747487063Simply untrue
>>747486173the romancing saga 2 remake was pretty successful so why not do another?
>>747483630It's romance in the "Romance of the 3 Kingdoms" kinda way.
>>747487495because it was shit and a complete and total bastardization of one of the greatest games ever made
I've never played any SaGa games cause I have an aversion to games that punish you for grinding. Any game that incentivizes you to NOT play it is not a well designed game. If you don't want people to overlevel for shit then just cap the level like in Tactics Ogre or have level scaling.
>>747487063>>747487878haha there he goes
>>747487878Incorrect
>>747487878It was better than the original
>>747488161>t. ertiary
>>747487949Skill issue
>>747488620>skill issue>for a game I've never even playedDumbass. It's just bad, counter intuitive game design. There's no skill involved in not playing the game. Difficulty is not the issue.
>>747480731Romancing 3 is just less popular than 2Maybe because it's never had a coherent English translation and because the concept isn't as original as the Varennes Empire but that's just how it is
>>747489104Or maybe because it's just not as good as 2.
>>747480731Looks alright
>>747487878It wasn't though, it was a pretty good remake. Your autism doesn't mean shit to anyone else.
>>747488795Dark Souls buck broke zoomers and so their only recourse when faced with criticism is to just deflect with skill issue accusations. It's impossible to simply not like a game anymore it must be because you struggled with it. I like SaGa but I'll agree the absolute worst part about it is how it disincentivizes engaging with combat. It's why I hate FF8. I'd say you're wrong to say level scaling would be better though. That's just as bad.
Let me guess. The schizo's here fuming already.
>>747489219Nah it's a good game
Xeen's remake of RS2 was my game of the year 2024. I'm stupid hyped
>>747483630there's a steamy romance story with a horde of rats.
>>747489867the /vrpg/ schizos with text of well posting don't make sense. Like the change to characters acting on their speed based turn is the end of the world when great games like FFX, Kiseki and DT used this system. I hope more games get Xeen love
>Kawazu just posts some schizo shitbased
>buy for NS1 and play immediatelyor>be patient and get it in 2027 for NS2
>>747489821SaGa doesn't disincentivize engaging with combat, it disincentivizes engaging with trivial combat or grinding.
>>747490992A game shouldn't have "trivial" combat in the first place. That just proves the point.
>>747487949Bah i didn't even the game had scaling until late in the game was still oneshotting most mobs
>>747491126If the combat in your area is trivial, why don't you proceed to the next segment of the game? And can you explain what the punishment is for grinding. Is it not trivial encounters?
>>747488795If you have to grind for the main story in any JRPG you are bad at the game. Full stop.
>Demake*Vomit*
I'm playing the 2 remake now, still with Gerard. My party just unlocked their class ability, like auto-parry for the heavy infantry. Should I change up the party members now or should I stick with one team until a timeskip?
I'm so tired of /v/tards blindly hating on every single remake
>>747482726is that the fairy from SMT
>>747482427This will piss off the rpg hipsters since saga is basically a cult series, but they are essentially jrpg elder scrolls with more experimental mechanics.>less of a focus on a main story and more on doing side quests in your preferred order>levelling is done based on the actions you do in combat. (use axe to increase your axe skill, instead of traditional levelling you increase stats based on your actions)>levelling scaling
>>747494586Keep them and make them use different weapons so they can spark different skills and learn them later after a timeskip.
>>747497439>>levelling scalingwdym?
>>747487495because it doesn't widen the fanbase just creates octopath tumor in saga playerbase. look no further than steam charts for emerald beyond, rots and saga frontier 2 remaster. 1500 peak, 15000 peak, 1500 peak.
>>747497546there is a battle rank system where the enemies progressively get stronger depending on how many battles you do.
>>747482726she's tiny and cute
>>747497439You'll piss people off because you say shit that doesn't make sense, SaGa and TES are completely different in purpose, Battle Rank is not level scaling either because SaGa doesn't have levels and BR is decoupled from characters>>747497546One of SaGa's signature mechanics from the SNES days onwards is Battle Rank.Basically, the way Battle Rank works is that enemies get stronger according to how much you fight through the game, in most games enemies change entirely but in the more recent games they just get stronger and/or get new tricks because nobudgetlolIt's not level scaling because there's no levels in SaGa and character growth happens on a battle by battle basis while BR increases steadily just by counting how many fights you get in, though there's various other technicalities like every part of a game's world having different BR ceilings or floors.Tt's an asymmetrical system that can be gamed in a variety of way rather that shit like Oblivion where the game looks at your level and then scales everything blindly according to that, BR doesn't scale things because there's no way for the game to create any scale to begin with.Some recent games like EB have additional BR modifiers that influence BR growth according to how well you perform during fights or some other progression technicalities, they key info here is that it's not level scaling anyway.
>>747487878you are mentally ill, seek help
>>747499030Tremendous amount of weeb cope.
>>747497285it's the fairy from Romancing Saga 3
>>747499163you defend bad games online
>>747499030>REEEEE DONT EXPLAIN THINGS IN A WAY THAT MAKE SENSE TO NEWCOMERS BY COMPARING IT TO A POPULAR GAME THEY PROBABLY PLAYED EVEN THOUGH IT'S FUNCTIONALLY THE LITERAL SAME MECHANIC
>>747480731They look AI generated
>>747499527It's not functionally the same at all, but you're too mentally challenged to understand that.No wonder you shill these demakes to people.
>>747499695Meds.
>>747499695Unless youre Japanese I dont really believe you were a fan of saga before the 2000s, stop larping like youre a veteran
>>747499030embarrassing post
>>747499953actual SaGa chads don't get browbeaten by the majority opinion. we are used to being outnumbered unlike you tertiary fucks clinging to peer pressure like you are used to.
>>747500136>he calls himself a chadKekYou didnt even knew what Saga was 5 years ago I bet
>>747499953Ah yes, the people who actually know how mechanics work and can explain them in detail are the ones LARPing, while the shills who actively post factually wrong info while gooning to gacha characters are the true fans.
>>747500567You sound spooked and raped ngl
>>747500567I know youre just desperate for attention but let me tell you, lying about being "such a fan" of something you didnt even know about a few years ago doesnt make you better than others. Youre a newfag like everyone else. Nobody gave a shit about this series 5 or 6 years ago other than the japs
>>747500427I was playing frontier when you were still in your dads balls
>
>>747492434>>747493250It's similar to FF8 where you're better off to just avoid combat as much as humanly possible so your BR doesn't scale as much making the game a joke because if you play like that you'll get gear and skills that are way more powerful relative to the strength level the game intends for you to be at. It's just not a fun system to play around and a game that you have to go out of your way to make fun rather than it just being a fun mechanic.
>>747501043This is how you get buttfucked by fixed battles by the way.
>>747500841I've been posting about these games here before /vg/ was even a thing but okay, do I need to post my japanese copy of Scarlet Grace's original JP only release on Vita?Because I can, I still have all my old screenshots as well, your no true scotsman bullshit doesn't work on me.
>>747501043I think you're playing the game wrong
